What Our Customers Say...

Description

Colour Plates, First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce

First edition of Rupert and the Pirates illustrated by John Ireland in the original publisher's hardback binding. 

A scarce edition of this lovely children's book based on the adventures of Rupert the Bear. 

Complete with three full page colour pop-ups. Pop-up three is in fine condition and full working order. The first two pop ups are in near fine condition with a few creases, meaning they require a little assistance to 'pop-up'. 

In great condition overall with very bright pages and boards. 

Prior owner's ink inscription to the first page. 

Condition

In the original publisher's hardback binding. Externally, excellent. There is some minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound.

The first two pop ups are in near fine condition with a few creases, meaning they require a little assistance to 'pop-up'. Prior owner's ink inscription to the first page.
